Dear Karen,
We are so sorry to hear of your Mother's passing. Terry and I both have found memories of your mother from our years at West End. I especially remember her as my Sunday School teacher in the Youth Department. She was a beautiful woman both inside and out, and will be missed by so many people. All of you will be in our thoughts and prayers.
Fondly,
Susan & Terry Walker
